Jeff Goodman was one of the first to be out in front of the news that Mike Anderson was being let go. Today he had some new news on the Arkansas coaching search.
The initial interest was that Kelvin Sampson was the first name Arkansas was looking at, but he is closing in on a new deal with the Cougars.
So who is Eric Musselman? For starters he just wrapped up his fourth season with Nevada, where they finished with a 29-5 record and lost to Florida in their NCAA Tournament opener. It was a team loaded with seniors, so it would be a natural break for him to move on this year.
